The exterior of your home establishes the style of your house. By choosing specific elements for your home’s facade, you will be setting the tone of your property. So whether you are remodeling your exterior to increase your resale value and bump up your curb appeal, or simply want to enhance your home’s aesthetics, here are tips to help you along the way.
5 tips for your home design
Take a walk
Getting to know the look and feel of your neighbourhood is an important step. Put on your walking shoes on and discover the architectural and design styles in your area. You may find your selection may be influenced by your surroundings.
Go Classic in Neutral
When it comes to exterior color schemes, there’s something to be said for tried-and-true combinations. Neutral colors can be the ideal to add depth to your home, allowing you many options when it comes to accents and trims. One of our favorites is combining Khaki, Commercial Brown and Country Red!
The Dark Side
Looking to make a statement with your home exterior? Choose a dark, deep color to set yours apart from the rest. Combine that with a black trim and a lighter accent shade for a stunning look.
Combine Mixed Materials
Can’t decide on one material for your home exterior? There’s nothing holding you back from choosing multiple siding options. In fact, mixed materials can bring a modern edge to any architectural design. Add dimension to your project by highlighting different areas through different material options.
